There’s money for ICE
There’s money to build detention camps.
There’s money for Argentina.
There’s money to invade Venezuela.
But we’re supposed to believe there’s no money for healthcare, housing & food?
Suffering is a policy choice.

And the results are in! After carefully reviewing the results of a national poll the Board of Directors of the Society for Canadian English (SCE) has determined that this year’s Canadian Word of the Year (CWOTY), the first of its kind, will be “maplewashing.”

It’s not necessary to keep highlighting the qualities of exceptional immigrants as a reason for them to be treated well by their governments. We don’t have to be on our best behaviour to receive a basic level of human decency: that‘s why they’re called “human rights”, and not “human privileges”.

Like, my choice is a minority Liberal government but I can’t make that happen with my vote. How could I?
They’re talking about “the people chose a minority government” on the CBC and I don’t think that’s true or even really possible.

for whatever reason, the victims of traffic violence never factor into the calculation. no urgency there. but do something that might affect a suburban lawyer who had a few drinks and then it becomes an “equity” issue

I'm seeing a lot of "Luigi Mangione might be innocent" takes and I just want to remind you that legally, he IS innocent. Literally every person charged with a crime is legally innocent until and unless a judge or jury finds them guilty. It's not that they MIGHT be innocent. They simply are.

Unironically the one place I support automated policing with harsh enforcement is traffic violations
Speeding, reckless driving, and DUIs should absolutely fuck you over, preferably by a percentage of your annual income, and have very few strikes before you become a permanent public transit user

It’s so wild that “a random online leftist said something I found annoying once” is legitimately a huge driver of modern politics in a way that “online right-wingers with significant sway over powerful people say literal Nazi things” isn’t and likely never will be
Literally nobody has ever referred to her as a "birthing person," yet the existence of the term was enough to turn her into a full-on anti-trans crusader.
Ana Kasparian claims the left turned on her over her opposition to being called a "birthing person".
Ana Kasparian: "I don't have kids, I don't want to have kids, and I don't want to be called a 'birthing person', I find it super insulting."

What does animal ag use all those antibiotics for? The dairy industry, for ex, uses them to treat mastitis, a terrible condition that arises frequently b/c dairy production is brutal & pushes their bodies to the point of collapse. For that, we're willing to risk the effectiveness of modern medicine?
At the end of each year, FDA releases data on antibiotics sold for use in livestock.
It usually changes a few %. This year, it went up 15.8%.
I was shocked & emailed experts/industry groups. Likeliest explanation per a source: industry is not "being good stewards of antibiotics"

This post is good. I generally avoid socialization discourse bc it's a genuinely interesting topic that is talked about in the dumbest possible ways.
My spicy socialization take is that we mostly use the phrase "female socialization" to refer to raising someone to be a people-pleaser so they don't get hit, and as people constantly at risk of getting hit, trans femmes receive it as much as anyone else
“Male Socialization” of trans femmes isn’t a real thing. Invoking it just shows you’re a bozo trying to misgender us.
Trans people were never really socialized as our AGAB. At best, we were pressured to mimic norms that gave us dysphoria.
It’s an obvious TERF / Blanchardist dog whistle. Do better.
